So I wanted to create a little video on six things that can potentially lower your child's IQ.

0:06.8

Now a lot of this information is associated on what the female is exposed to

0:12.0

or consuming right before and during the pregnancy, okay? Like a lack of iodine can drop the IQ by

0:19.4

12.4 points. So iodine is a trace mineral. So it's vital that a woman who's pregnant consume

0:28.0

trace minerals to make sure that the growing fetus has everything it needs to develop into a healthy

0:32.8

body. Number two, not being breastfed can also affect the cognitive function, okay? When a child

0:39.6

is fed infant formula filled with all these chemicals and sugars that has huge effects on the

0:46.8

growing brain. Even down here we talked about high sugar diets. Well, high sugar creates

0:53.2

infant resistance, which can affect hypoglycemia and even cause the brain to be a little bit smaller

0:58.4

than it should be. So breastfeeding is very, very important. Minimally six months, but up to two

1:05.2

years or longer would be good. All right. Number three, childhood diabetes type one, okay? That has huge

1:10.8

effects on the development of a growing brain and it has effects of the cognitive function as well.

1:15.8

We've already talked about infant resistance in hypoglycemia, but diabetes in general can definitely

1:22.5

affect the IQ. Now, I'm going to put some links down below on what I think that's causing

1:27.7

diabetes type one, which is autoimmune. You can check that out later, but this can actually affect

1:33.2

the IQ. Number four, lower B12. B12 is essential in the development of the central nervous system

1:42.4

and just the nervous system in general. So if there's not enough B12, that can affect the cognitive

1:49.1

function. Okay. So number six, exposure to certain chemicals specifically fallates, okay? And

1:54.3

that can really affect the cognitive function, especially IQ. Okay. So this would be in certain

2:00.8

plastic containers that you're going to hold your food in. You put the food that's hot in there,

2:05.1

that heat melts in the plastic. It goes in the food. It's also in cosmetics. It's in soaps,

2:10.8

shampoo. It's in skin moisturizers. So we just need to be aware of what our children are exposed to
